Tom, very well thought out process on mass production of knees. I was leaning toward using 1/8" stock as well for the knees as it almost works out perfectly for scale.

Tom, I hadn't thought of support issues with the inner planking. Good solution. The cannons you got in the separate packs seem like better quality as far as the white metal goes. I didn't see the typical heavy flash on it. Maybe that's what I'll have to resort to when I get to that stage.

The gratings and planking look great! Did you make your own grating material or is that something that we can get as an after-market item?

That is fantastic metal work Dan, but I'm always very impressed with your wood working and how precisely you get multiple pieces to look identical. With the stanchions, are you just gluing these down? If the sheaves were going to be in use with rigging would you secure them any differently?

The cannons look like they're ready for action Bob. Great work! I share you feeling on repetitive work as well.

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
